The White House will meet with congressional leadership as a top Republican is requesting President Biden declassify information on a "serious national security threat"
Okay, good. So just the GOP trying to drum up a super scary distraction from their opposition to doing anything about the border or supporting America’s allies. I’m sure this is just as scary as that ‘East Coast destroying nuclear torpedo’ of theirs.
If anything this undercuts them opposing Ukraine aid. Russia is trying to escalate, so they clearly need to be shut down, and we conveniently have an Ally working to do that right now, an Ally that has a pending aid bill before that very chamber.
This might be the Republican plan. Russia breaking the “no nukes in space” rule, so now it’s okay to back Ukraine again. They don’t lose face, satisfy the large chunk of constituents that support what Ukraine is doing, and make their military donors happy.

I think that’s way more 4d chess than they are actually capable of, but if votes shift i’ll definitely give it to your take.
